I'd like to ask, my 7-year-old child's urine test showed hematuria (2+), what should I do?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I would like to ask if it's serious that my 7-year-old child's urine test shows trace hematuria (2+), with zero red blood cells. What are the main reasons for this?

Doctor's answer:

Based on the situation you described, does the child have symptoms such as eyelid edema and decreased urine output? A positive urine occult blood test mainly suggests a urinary tract infection or nephritis. It is necessary to go to the hospital for further examination, such as a 24-hour urine protein test.
The above is the advice for the question "Doctor, I want to ask about my child who is 7 years old and has been tested with positive urine occult blood," and I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
